Conqueror of Dying Kingdom

About Conqueror of Dying Kingdom

Reborn into another world after never knowing the warmth of a family, a man named Yuri finds himself doted on by loving parents and given the chance to live a quiet, peaceful life. Surrounded by the affection he never experienced before, he settles into an idyllic existence that feels just as his second life ought to be, far removed from conflict and hardship. Yet the peace surrounding Yuri and those close to him rests on fragile ground. Their homeland is threatened by another branch of humanity that dominates the vast reaches of the continent, leaving the kingdom in grave danger of dying out. As tensions across the land intensify, Yuri and his family find that they cannot remain bystanders forever and are steadily drawn into the middle of an encroaching war. Serving as the sword of the kingdom are the knightly houses, warriors who ride kakedori birds and wield lances in defense of the realm. Yuri's father originally belonged to the prestigious Hovu knightly family, though his hatred of people killing one another led him to leave the house behind in search of a gentler life. Everything changes when Yuri's uncle, the leader of the Hovu family, loses his life. His sudden death leaves a void at the head of the clan and pulls Yuri's reluctant father back into the world of knights he once abandoned, uprooting the quiet household they had built together. Bound by his family's return to service, Yuri is forced to enroll in the Knights' Academy, the institution where the realm's future knights are trained. An encounter awaiting him within its halls sets a dramatic shift in motion, altering the fate of both Yuri and the imperiled kingdom around him. Driven to fight for the people he loves, he steps onto a path that eventually makes him known across the world as the Demon King.
